OMG..... that's just God-awful!!

I have listened to Ghost Of Graceland about 10 times in the last 2 days. Really a great disc and is growing on me even more. Not a filler in sight.

I trash Reece a lot but this is still one of my favorite songs and discs: https://youtu.be/A6-AETO8kLk

My first spin rating of this was 86%. It might creep closer to 90% - 92% in the end though.

The couple tracks I've heard aren't doing a whole lot for me. The Defiants >>>>>>>>>> Ted Poley's solo disc

It's okay. Rather hear some new Crashdiet.

Well almost everything else of the new stuff is crap compared to those 2. Very true!

I listened to this right after The Defiants and Treat....... it's crap compared to those too.

Does anyone else get a GOTTHARD feel to some of the tracks?

Treat and The Defiants > Wigelius

Reece's voice just completely turns me off now and I used to love it. Just too much output.

I will say it's 100% better than that rubbish on NE 2nd Avenue!!

Did you try it out Geoff?

Tough year for music.

Oh for Chrissake...this f*ckin picture again? This damn thing was all over Facebook a couple of weeks ago in just about every rock/metal FB group I belong to, cuz apparently nobody could I.D. the band. I got so tired of seeing this pic that I don't even care who they are anymore. Hahahaha Precisely!!

Got some cool stuff from the Tubefreeks today. They were/are a hard rock band that started in the early 90's.

"This Japanese Edition features as bonus track a different version of 'Together Alone', with the synth orchestration re-arranged, mixed with a Spanish guitar arrangement and where the lead vocals are upfront, resulting in a more intimate ballad." That sounds interesting enough. I was just hoping for a new track, not just an alternative version of a song. Seems that's the new thing to do. I don't see many bonus tracks that are studio extra tracks. They all seem to be alternate versions or live songs. I kind of miss the extra tunes on those Jap and Euro versions.

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/22/arts/music/prince-dead.html?_r=0 Prince, Multifaceted Pop Star Who Remade Genres, Is Dead at 57 By JOE COSCARELLI APRIL 21, 2016 Prince, the singularly flamboyant and prolific songwriter and performer whose decades of music transcended and remade genres like funk, rock and R&B, died on Thursday at his Paisley Park studio and estate in Minnesota, according to The Associated Press. He was 57. Across a career of more than 35 years, Prince released 39 albums while being lauded not only for his songs, but their visual presentation both onstage and on camera. His 1984 film “Purple Rain” is widely considered one of the best and most influential music films ever, while its accompanying soundtrack spawned the No. 1 hits “Let’s Go Crazy” and “When Doves Cry.” He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004. Full obituary to follow.

I always liked "No Respect". Love the songs mentioned plus "Aces" and "Secrets".
